COMMENT

Number of toothpick in the sieve after n rounds.

Also, toothpick sequence starting at the corner of an infinite square, but with angle = Pi/4.

The toothpick sequence A139250 is the main entry for this sequence. See also A153000. First differences: A160407.

FORMULA

A139250(n) = 2a(n) + 2a(n+1) - 4n - 1 for n>0. - N. J. A. Sloane, May 25 2009

Let G = (x + 2*x^2 + 4*x^2*(1+x)*(mul(1+x^(2^k-1)+2*x^(2^k),k=1..oo)-1)/(1+2*x))/(1-x) (= g.f. for A139250); then the g.f. for the present sequence is (G + 2 + x*(5-x)/(1-x)^2)*x/(2*(1+x)). - N. J. A. Sloane, May 25 2009

MAPLE

G := (x + 2*x^2 + 4*x^2*(1+x)*(mul(1+x^(2^k-1)+2*x^(2^k), k=1..20)-1)/(1+2*x))/(1-x); P:=(G + 2 + x*(5-x)/(1-x)^2)*x/(2*(1+x)); series(P, x, 200); seriestolist(%); - N. J. A. Sloane, May 25 2009
